Speedy international delivery - made its way to New Zealand much faster than expected. Great price and product selection - the Olympus 6 Goretex was only released a few weeks prior to purchase and this was one of the few shops outside of the US that had availability. Really impressed with Hillmalaya HK. Will look to purchase here again. Amazing shoe, too. Thanks.

I bought these shoes for the Camino Portuguese from Porto to Santiago (~160 miles), which I just finished. It was my sixth Camino and my fifth pair of Astra shoes. On sunny days the GTXs are hotter than the Olympus 5s, on rainy days they are just as wet inside. If all you're doing is stepping in puddles on a short walk to the bus, the GTXs will fit the bill. But if you're walking for hours in steady rain the Gortex holds back the water for a while but once the socks get wet, the feet get wet. That said, for keeping occasional water out the GTXs are better than the 5s,My biggest concern with these shoes is they squeak - badly. The squeeks in both shoes started one wet day and have continued ever since regardless of the dampness (or lack thereof) of the shoes or the ... MoreI bought these shoes for the Camino Portuguese from Porto to Santiago (~160 miles), which I just finished.

For a while I thought it was the Sole insoles I was using. Changed back to the OEM insoles and squeaks continued. It's loud enough that my walking companions could hear me coming. For me, the squeak is a deal breaker. My four year old Lone Peak 4s are worn out but never sounded like this. Because of the squeak, I am taking them back to REI to exchange for something else.All up, I love Altra shoes. I wouldn't walk long distances in anything else, but because of the really annoying squeak, I think I may go back to the Olympus 5s and save the price difference.

If you are new (like me) to zero/low drop shoes, be prepared for sore legs the first week as you stretch. So far I have hiked, paraglided, lounged, and done office work in these shoes. I don't even think about them, and at the end of the day my feel still feel great.

I like these shoes. Cushy just like the Olympus Trail Runners but waterproof. Only issue is the right shoe squeaks. It does it on all surfaces. Guess I'm not sneaking up on anyone .

My first pair of Altra's and I, (along with my feet), could not be any happier. About 50 miles in on this pair, ZERO complaints. Definitely buying a fresh pair before my AT attempt next year. 10/10!
Just came back from completing the Tour Du Mont Blanc! A 100 mile hiking trek through the mountains of France, Italy and Switzerland. Super comfortable, no blisters and the water proof helped a ton through many water crossings. Definitely would recommend!
The good : a bit wider toebox. a little bit improved lug pattern.The bad: same weight, way too heavy, a worse heel cup and heel material, less Goretex inside.Still the best option from Altra for bad weather.Wish they made something lighter yet resistant.
The width is great, allows my foot to move without cramping. This is important to mitigate pain that can develop in my metatarsal area. This still allows me to lock down my foot comfortably with maximum support including the heal. Highly recommended.
They are comfortable but previous pair (Olympus 5) didn't last long. The Goretex waterproof membrane lasted 2 walks. By the third one the left shoe was seeping water. That is very common, unfortunately. Goretex is a rip-off.
